Don't hang up (no, no),
Oh, don't you do it now,
Don't hang up (no, no).

Don't hang up like you always do.
I know you think our love is true.
I'll explain the facts to you, don't hang up.
Give me a chance or our romance is through.

Don't hang up (no, no),
Oh, don't you do it now,
Don't hang up (no, no).

I took a walk with Mary Lou.
I ran around to visit Sue.
She had some boys I never knew. Don't hang up.
They took a ride, so, baby, I went too.

Stopped at the record hop,
I had to be a sport.
We stomped and we did The Slop.
Then you walked in and I was caught.

Don't hang up (no, no),
Oh, don't you do it now,
Don't hang up (no, no).

'Cause you got some explainin' too.
A-Like that chick I saw with you.
So talk fast like you always do.
Don't hang up.
You've got one chance or our romance is through.

[Instrumental break.]

Then you walked in and you were caught.
Don't hang up (no, no),
Oh, don't you do it now,
Don't hang up (no, no).

I didn't say our love was through.
But if we made a fool for two,
'Cause making up is fun to do.
Don't hang up.
'Cause no one else will ever do but you.

Don't hang up (no, no),
Oh, don't you do it now,
Don't hang up (no, no).
[Fade.]
Or you'll be sorry, baby.
Don't hang up (no, no).
You know I love you, baby.
Don't hang up...
